Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –
Confirmation of the President of the United States Donald trump being infected with the corona virus causes many people to associate this with a series The Simpsons and talk about it on social media.
“The Simpsons have never been wrong with #TrumpHasCovid,” tweeted one Twitter user.
It started shortly after Trump officially announced via Twitter on Friday (2/10) that he and his wife, who is also the first lady of the United States, Melania Trump, were infected with the corona virus.
“Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for Covid-19. We will immediately begin the quarantine and recovery process. We will finish this TOGETHER!” Trump tweeted on Friday (10/2).
Shortly after, a photo appeared that looked like it was taken from an episode of The Simpsons that featured Donald Trump’s character as a cameo and lying in a coffin. The image of Trump’s character is still widely discussed today.
According to a search by CNNIndonesia.com, the photo is the same one that went viral a few months ago when it was said that The Simpsons predicted Trump’s death on August 27, 2020.
As reported Independent, the image of Trump lying in a coffin was never in the series The Simpsons, also known as a fake. The Simpsons reportedly never predicted Donald Trump’s death.
Similar, Wi News reports that some big Simpsons fans stated that there was never an episode predicting the death of Donald Trump.
Meanwhile, the animated series The Simpsons usually appears when a major event occurs in the world and many people are believed to contain conspiracy theories. Several episodes of The Simpsons that aired in the last decade are associated with major world events.
For example, when the Ebola virus broke out in 2014, which was similar to one of the episodes of The Simpsons that aired in 1997. In the series, Marge Simpson is seen holding a book called Curious George and the Ebola Virus .
The election of Donald Trump as president of the United States also appeared in the episode Bart to the Future that aired in 2000. At that time, Bart went to the future and met his sister Lisa, who said that Trump would become president. .
The film that aired in 2007 is even believed to have predicted that Tom Hanks would be positive for Covid-19 and should be quarantined.
However, not a few turned out to be hoaxes or forgeries.
In addition to predicting Trump’s death, The Simpsons are also said to have known about the emergence of the corona virus. This is related to the Marge in Chains episode that aired in March 1993. In fact, in that episode, several characters from The Simpsons were infected with the Osaka flu, which came from Japan, not China.
Another mistake was when it was said that The Simpsons knew of George Floyd’s death. At that moment, one of the police characters, Chief Wiggum, stepped on the neck of a black man, similar to what happened to George Floyd.
However, the pieces of the images that circulate are the work of Instagram user Yuri Pomo.
